Lurking Roper + Quicksilver Dagger

Lurking Roper

Quicksilver Dagger

How it works

1. Give Lurking Roper lifelink, if needed.
2. Activate Lurking Roper by tapping it, dealing 1 damage to an opponent, causing you to gain 1 life and draw a card.
3. Lurking Roper triggers, untapping itself.
4. Repeat from step 2.

This clever pairing turns Lurking Roper's unusual aversion to conventional untap steps into your greatest asset once enchanted by Quicksilver Dagger. Because Lurking Roper doesn't untap naturally, it relies entirely on its triggered ability to ready itself for action; granting it lifelink means that tapping it to deal damage to a player will instantly trigger that untapping condition, looping the process endlessly. With each iteration, Quicksilver Dagger provides a fresh card draw and a point of damage while the lifelink keeps the engine churning, letting you draw your entire deck and whittle down your opponents in one fell swoop.
